Court
South Gauteng High Court, Johannesburg
Case number

In the absence of further evidence, the applicants are entitled to an interim interdict restraining the respondents from using the name Maxi Drivers Association. The matter is postponed sine die, and the respondents may seek reconsideration upon providing further evidence.
